Goran -

I am not sure what news you are wanting.
I posted the dates as May 1, 2,3 and also posted the hotel information.

This is not the kind of event you attended in Arizona last year.
It is for eXpress++ users only and there are not any speakers from Alaska Software.

The intent is to allow eXpress++ users to share their experiences with other eXpress++ users.
It will also be a 3-day workshop for eXpress++ and Xbase++ 2.0.

The reason I chose to do this is because I realized that Alaska Software was not providing information that made it easy for Xbase++ programmers to get started with 2.0. Their focus on FoxPro, PostGreSql and the WorkBench just didn't grab the attention of the eXpress++ users who were at the conference. I think they have done some very good things in 2.0 and I want to share my experiences with you and let you know what I believe is ready and what is not, what is useful for eXpress++ users, and what is not, and strategies for upgrading your application. I have been helping several eXpress++ users to do this since last October.

I know that it is a long way for you to travel again and another big expense. I thought about doing this in the autumn, but it would have conflicted with the Arizona devcon and also with another commitment that I have. I am the organizer of a US Navy ship's reunion in the autumn.

Hi Roger,

Everything is clear with conference :-), and I would like to come, that is not question. Question was; "Is anyone from my region comes?" and is there something new with that...

Having an opportunity to see and talk to Tom and Michael is the reason I decided to stay until Tuesday. More opportunity to learn from their experiences.

Hi Roger,

I want to ask whether you or anyone from the conference participants would be able to make a video recording of the individual lectures, if it is possible, and share it on YouTube as Alaska did it at the last conference?
I also want to ask whether the demonstrations and examples will be available on your web site or here? Or will be included into sample eXpress++ folder?

Regards,
Zdeno
